Eurovision Song Contest
Don't know how many of you watched the subject contest last night. Many years ago I used to enjoy it, but in recent years I have better things to do with my valuable time.
Mme TP however enjoys it, and was delighted to see that France were very highly placed in the scoring for a change. They came 2nd.
Now it must be said that not only have the UK isolated themselves from Europe, they've now become the laughing stock of Eurovision. In fact the only country finishing with nul points, and having since listened to the song and the atrocious singer, a deserved result. Nice one Boris!
I bet Terry Wogan is turning in his grave.

I'm no big fan of Eurovision, but it was on the TV and I slept through it all, but the first song and the final result! Though in the follow up videos the special effects were stunning.
But well done Italy.

Re: Eurovision Song Contest
I have to say that the reporting of the drugs use was very biased. For example even when BBC breakfast reported that the cocaine drugs test proved negative.... the video showing him leaning down to pick up the fallen glass was done in slow motion so it looked like he was nose down on the table for a long time. This is bad reporting I think. Or maybe I'm getting hacked off with fake news and sensationalising the news.
